Thanks for your advice. I live in the humidity belt in Mid Ga.
I have always had a small garden, and tilled by hand or with hand tools. I have the tractor for about 8 years and am moving to a new lot which has incredible top soil. I am hoping to have some crops that I could not have before. such as corn, winter squach, melons etc. I would like more knowledge in particluar about setting up the cultivators, using the front mount fertilizer spreader. Is it better (using the tractor) for longer rows ove shorter ones. I am thinking of approx 100 by 300 foot garden, that could be 33 feet x 100 each year with a 3 year rotation. Of course I could easily go to 120 x 300 and have 4 year rotation. Using green compost such as buckwheat. I don't know about them, I may want to use something like velvet beans or vetch. any info you wish to share is appreaciated. My tractor is on the implement page, look for Famrall 140 with post hole digger.
